Meet Crissa: The Eye Behind Studio CT
As the founder of Studio CT, Crissa lives at the intersection of photography, experiential events, and digital branding — which is a fancy way of saying she makes brands look really good and feel even better.
As an Austin branding photographer, she brings clarity, charm, and serious creative direction to every project. Her work isn’t just aesthetically sharp — it’s strategic. It builds confidence. It tells a story. It makes you say, “Okay wow… that’s us.”
Crissa believes creativity builds community — and you can feel that philosophy in everything she touches. Modern tech meets heartfelt approach. Elevated but never stiff. Polished but always personal.
Mahjong, But Make It Cool
Beyond Studio CT, Crissa hosts weekly Mahjong sessions at The House — and yes, they’re as fun as they sound. What starts as a game quickly turns into strategy debates, new friendships, and the kind of old-school social energy Austin could always use more of.
And this year there’s something extra special on the horizon: Mahjong for a Mission, a charity tournament hosted by Crissa on Thursday, February 19th, benefiting the Andy Roddick Foundation — with light bites, drinks, American Mahjong play, and a festive elevated-red dress code to celebrate the Lunar New Year. Join the mission here.
It’s competitive, it’s social, and it’s for a great cause — so bring your best game and your fiery red outfit.
Her Mahjong nights have become a staple of our weekly rhythm — proof that the best “experiences” aren’t overproduced. They’re shared.
Create With Her. Compete With Her. Connect With Her.
If you’re looking for an Austin photographer who can elevate your brand without making it feel like a corporate brochure, Studio CT is your move.
If you’re looking for a reason to finally learn Mahjong — we’ve got a seat saved.
